Bentley says: 7 max 9 ft-lbs for the M7 "screw for clamp nut." 29 ft lbs is mentioned in a paragraph just above the photo that shows the clamp bolt being tightened, but that paragraph is talking about a brake caliper bolt, not the wheel bearing adjuster. Sometimes it is easier to just turn to the back of each chapter where there is a torque table for all the things covered in that chapter.
